I have a Bulgarian Makarov I purchased about 6 years ago. It had never been fired and the grease in the magazines had hardened to a rubbery consistency. I cleaned it up and purchased 5 boxes of ammo and went to my outdoor range. After putting the 5 boxes through the thing I have determined that this pistol may be the best bargain in pistols. Reliable as a Glock, really great trigger, and really easy to shoot. I have since purchased a stainess steel Russian model in 380. It has all the great characteristics of the Bulgarian, and super pretty to boot. However - I can tell the difference in power between the 9x18 and 380. The 9x18 is noticeably punchier on impact. If you are looking for a great carry pistol with great reliability, trigger, and a real safety to boot - there is no better bargain in my opinion. A lot like the Bersa Thunder 380 but a bit sexier as it is a real military combat pistol. Just my 3 cents.

My husband decided to take my Bulgarian Mak on a kayaking trip. Well, the kayak got tipped and we lost her in the river. I just picked up a new one today and I'm so happy. I'm not the best shot with most guns, but I was very surprised when I was hitting targets pretty far off with my mak. As a beginner shooter who doesn't get much target practice I can vouch that this is a very accurate gun. I love it and feel really safe with it. Before loosing our other one we carried it everywhere especially while hiking and camping in the woods. So glad to have another one I hope we never part again!

Hey Hickok45, thanks for the great video on the Makarov. I just acquired one recently myself. It is an IMEZ Russian Makarov with the adjustable rear sight and the target like grip with thumb and index finger grooves. From my research it seems the pure military models seem to be the most desired. Personally I like the adjustable rear sight. I do not plan to carry it concealed or otherwise. I like taking my guns to the range and looking for that perfect target with all rounds in the same hole. Well on my first outing to the outdoor range I set my target at about 30 feet from the shooting stand. When adjusting sights i always load my mags up with 3 rounds each. Well you could have slapped me in the mouth when i found on almost every group I was putting two out of three rounds in the same hole. Wow......i was shooting better with this new ( to me ) handgun than I used to shoot with my beloved M-1911A1 and my Detonics Combat Master. It took a little while to get my shot group to move as the elevation screw on the rear sight was backed out so far my adjustments were making no difference. By the time it was getting dark out I fully loaded 2 mags. First full mag made one big ragged hole about 1" above dead center. Second mag was big hole in center of the Ten ring . I was shooting sitting on a stool with 2 hand hold with hands resting flat on the shooting table. No sandbags. Are these Makarovs all this accurate or did I just get lucky on a day the Range Gods were smiling on me. Oh, by the way. One of my 3 round groups WAS 3 rounds in the same hole.

Thanks Hickock. Great video. Back in the mid-90s, I worked evenings at a gun store after working days as a correctional caseworker. We sold a ton of Makarovs from throughout the old Warsaw Pack and Soviet Union. I believe they went for around $119. By comparison, we had Russian capture Walther P-38s for around $200. The Cold War had ended just 5-6 years prior and the deals in surplus arms seemed like they would never end. Another Cold War bargain was the Spanish Basque manufactured 9x19mm Star BM. I did get the Star. Now I wish I had picked up a Mak or two, and a Walther.

Hickok, it is a Slovenian service pistol. The technical manual ( Tehnicka Knjizica) is from the Slovenian Republic Ministry of Defense (Republika Slovenia Ministarstvo za Obrambo), and a Slovenian coat of arms. The pistols were imported into Slovenia from Bulgaria during the wars in former Yugoslavia to provide the newly independent Slovenia with small arms.

As a recommendation for those interested in carrying a Makarov for CC, I'd avoid the hollowpoints - the 9x18 round has mediocre penetration as it is, and adding a hollowpoint to the mix is bad news. I recommend a hard-cast round, such as the one Buffalo Bore makes. They're pricey, but being absolutely certain that your round will perform as you want it to is worth the extra money. Also, a higher weight recoil spring is a good idea too - not that the recoil is at all difficult, but tends to function better with a heavier spring.

In the army, My crew had to carry a box with 10 Makarovs in our self-propelled howitzer, in any drills we had. Once after we drove in a very hilly place had to stop and start shooting with a howitzer for time. The box with Mkarovs had detached and when we turned the turret to aim we smashed the whole box with the guns. It perforated one fuel tank.Then we had to sleep in the howitzer. It was winter and we are soaked in fuel in the morning. . Nobody was interested in the Makarovs we are shooting 122mm shells. Damn Makarovs I did not think someone will appreciate them so much. 122 mm Self-propelled howitzers were also Bulgarian production Russian models. Very good ones . They used them in the last war in Syria. Bulgaria was used by USSR to produce and sell weapons to all pro-communist states from Vietnam, Angola, Ethiopia ,Syria,Iraq and etc. The state company TEREM producing weapons and small arms had 30 factories The export company was called ''Kintex''' It started with shiploads for Vietnam. As small concealed arms, they developed keyholders with 2 bullets. It was called OSA

I can’t believe that the reloading sound of this gun is the same ones you get when you reload it in-game on Insurgency.

you should do a video on the p-64, its not a true makarov, but still 9x18 and a great gun

Bought a Russian Mak for $50 bucks in 1988. Never once had a FTF or misfire. Just bought a Bulgy Mak for $280. Covered in Cosmoline. I have some work to do. These are not in same class as CZ 82 or CZ 83 (got one of these too), but they are among the most rugged semi-autos ever made. Accurate and reliable. Exactly what you need for CCW.

For reloading 9mm Luger can be trimmed to length and fire formed.

HI. Thank you very much for explaining my comments to Sual al - Mikarouf. He receives 8.5 shots as a Koman in Iraq, but he writes on the cartoon 9 and to know that the shots exist in our year of manufacture. Very old. The last one can be 1983 and most often do not break. What is the solution? The 9 to 9 is short but what we can not import the 9 short greeting

I always loved this gun and the incredible sleek style and fixed barrel performance / accuracy. It's a brilliant and elegant design to say the lest. The bullets are so dainty and cute I always wanted one but still haven't found one with the quality and price I like. All the nice ones get expensive. To get one like I want will be about $400 but the ones that come close are going for about $350+++ today (July 2020). I have a couple 5-7's but still no nice P64. I will suffer on... P.S. God bless America.
